  Contacted this company regarding a sale of a Landrover defender. Stated that I would be catching a flight from another country to buy. Asked all the usual questions and was told that the defender was 100%. No chassis rust, working in all gears, clutch good and electrics working. Upon catching a flight and arranging a boat back, I arrived at the shop to view the defender... It was the complete opposite of what they had told me. Chassis was crumbling to the touch. Gear box seemed fine. Transfer box didn't engage in any drive. No electrics for brakes, headlights worked. When questioned the manager I was told if I don't like it then go... He knew I came from another country to see this vehicle. 200-300 pound lost simply from the staff not being honest and putting a false advertisement on. Another guy also buying that same day mentioned that he arrived to buy a van. Told over the phone it was 100% but once he viewed it the back doors wouldn't close. I looked at it myself and he was right. It was a mess. This van was almost new, just been damaged. He ended up having to buy it because the job required it the next day and the finance was already set in place.
